Task 2: Some universities offer online courses as an alternative to classes delivered on campus. Do you think this is a positive or negative development?

Currently, numerous universities are transitioning from face-to-face classes to online classes. This innovative educational approach has both merits and drawbacks but I think the demerit would surpass the merit for the reason provided below.
Several factors contributed to the notion of some colleges switching from in-person class to remote class. Firstly, during the covid-19 pandemic, remote working is becoming a global trend and having significant implications for education prompting schools and universities to offer online courses. This facilitated students in studying from home so they could utilize a flexible schedule to work on different tasks at the same time. Another compelling factor is that online classes give them the opportunity to study more effectively since there is no need to attend classes with hundreds of students. Giving the chance to follow and understand the lecturers clearly without being distracted by the noisy classes.
Although having such great advantages, online learning still has many drawbacks for students. Participating in online classes, students may lack sufficient self-discipline and might lack communication skills. For instance, this mode of instruction necessitates the students to concentrate more to not miss the information and require higher self-study skill. Another reason is that students participating in traditional classroom settings could have the opportunity to enhance their social life by making friends; engage in more active and productive study habits which remote classes would not have. As they engaged in passive learning and could easily get bored by looking at the screen for hours. Besides, students lacking access to technological devices such as computer, internet would be at a disadvantage to attend online classes.
In conclusion, switching the form of teaching from face-to-face to remote classes would have both advantages and disadvantages but adopting this instructional approach would not be an efficient way for students to study in the long term.
